Majority Leader Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu says NPP MPs will have to take a decision on Ken Ofori-Atta following some of their colleagues demanding his removal. More than 100 NPP MPs last year stirred controversy when they demanded the firing of the president's

The reasoning behind that judgment is very disappointing. When you read the judgment you will realize that the courts ignored the issues before them. - Mahama Ayariga, MP, Bawku Central #PMExpress
The MP for Kumawu was introduced to Parliament today. The first time that took place was him taking his oath of office and his oath of allegiance. It was today that he swore that he owed allegiance to Ghana and no other country. - Mahama Ayariga, MP, Bawku Central #PMExpress
